I deleted the /dev/log and did a soft link ln -s /devices/pseudo/log@0:log\@0\:log /dev/log

but I am still geting the same error: yslog-ng -f /usr/local/etc/syslog-ng.conf Error opening syslog device; filename='/dev/log', error='No such file or directory (2)' Error initializing source driver; source='src_local', id='src_local#0' Error initializing message pipeline; root@server:/usr/local/etc#
Hmm.. I think the symlink you created points to a non-existing file, the log@0 portion is duplicated. The file points here in my case: "../devices/pseudo/log@0:log"
